The image depicts a scene with a dark brown horse in the center, wearing a yellow saddle blanket and a bridle. The horse is surrounded by a group of approximately 20 people, mostly men, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, including loincloths, some wearing headbands or hats. They are running towards the right side of the image. Behind them, a larger group of people, about 15, wearing blue and red clothing, are also running. In the background, there is a building with a tiled roof and a pagoda-style roof on the right. A group of 4 people stand on a balcony on the upper level of the building. Two people are standing by the building's lower level. A red torii gate pillar is visible on the right. The background of the image is a gray sky. The artwork style suggests a woodblock print. The scene appears to be a dynamic and action-packed moment captured in a traditional Japanese setting. Title: Miya, Atsuta Shin Ji. Artist: Utagawa Hiroshige.
